Introduction
We are Mind Blowing Balloons Chicago, the #1 balloon twisting company on Thumbtack in the Chicagoland area! As an offshoot of a very successful California company, we have been trained by the best and are sure to bring expertise at any event we service. **We are officially taking requests for early 2025 events. Pricing has been updated. We do not schedule events more than 3 months out. Contact us before we fill up!** ***1 hour minimum for all events, 90 min minimum for events more than 1 hour away (possible additional travel fee), 2 hour minimum for events more than 90 mins away (possible additional travel fee)*** Prices and possible fees finalized before confirmation of service. We have a team of 5 twisters, all with at least 6 years of experience in the field. Each balloon artist is adaptable to a variety of events, such as birthday parties, holiday events, religious celebrations, indoor and outdoor festivals and community events, and much more. We have 4 different "levels" of balloons twisting, ordered by complexity and time it takes to create a given balloon creation. More time allows for more complex designs, while more expected guests per hour means that the twister will have to stick to lower "level" balloons. Our baseline quality of our creations are what really set us apart from other balloon artists, so you can be certain that our creations will be sure to amaze. Consider the different "levels" of balloons as you decide the length of time for when you want a professional twister at your event. Level 1: 30-45 creations per hour Basic animals (elephants, monkeys, butterflies, etc) Basic wearables (animal bracelets, crowns, belts for swords/lightsabers, etc) Basic miscellaneous (Minecraft swords, light sabers, roses, etc) Level 2: 20-30 creations per hour Intermediate animals (flamingo, penguin, dinosaurs, etc) Intermediate characters (Spider-man, Ariel, Pluto the dog, ect) Intermediate wearables (animal hats, tiara, etc) Intermediate miscellaneous (multi-colored flowers, bow and arrows, Minecraft pick-ax, etc) Level 3 (our "Mind Blowing Creations"): 10-20 creations per hour Advanced animals (dragons, sloths, pandas, etc) Advanced wearables (jetpacks, intricate animal hats, character hats, etc) Advanced characters (Marvel/DC superheroes, Disney Princesses, Mickey, etc) Level 4 (only for select twisters, contact for more info): 5-10 per hour Individualized creations **Options vary by twister** **Creations can be requested prior to event for twisters to have prepared options to fit theme/preference of the hosts** **Twisters can take suggestions day-of, ability to create requests vary by twister**

We booked Ryan for our VBS Carnival day last weekend and it was a hit and went amazing! He was punctual and very kind and friendly to everyone. The designs were very fun and even some adults got balloons for themselves too. The fish hook and rose balloons were especially a hit. People came up to me after saying how their kids loved the balloons and how they’re glad that I booked it. I highly recommend booking Mind Blowing Balloon, especially for a larger crowd.

Details: Community event • 101 - 150 guests • Younger than 4 years old • 4 - 6 years old • 7 - 10 years old • 11 - 14 years old • 15 - 17 years old • Simple balloon twisting (e.g., one-balloon dog) • Detailed balloon art (uses several balloons) • Face painting is not needed

Nate did an amazing job at my daughter's 9th birthday party! He was great with the kids, professional and responsive, and impressed kids and parents alike with his many balloon creations. He could do it all, from Spiderman to very random requests like "monkey in a tree." Highly, highly recommend! This is the parrot he made for my daughter.

Details: Birthday party • 11 - 20 guests • 7 - 10 years old • Detailed balloon art (uses several balloons) • Face painting is not needed

I highly recommend Nata! He is creative and efficient, and everyone at the party was amazed by his work. His balloon art is not only impressive but also interactive, with some balloons having interactive features. His talent truly made the party memorable. I highly recommend Nata for any event! :)
